New Kitchen Decor on a Budget

Between yard sales, 80% off sales and shopping my house, I was able to give the kitchen a fresh new summer look ....and stay within my budget.

I have the island bar set for breakfast with my new 80% off plates and coffee cups from HL. The aqua place mats are a yard sale purchase.

I cut a pretty bouquet from the yard this morning and used my 80% canister for the vase. I found the sweet sheep at a yard sale this past week end......the faux pea's, pea sign and the topiary are items I already had.

I shopped the house for my silverware, napkins, rings, table runner, and salt & pepper shakers.

Left is before..............................right is after

I put my other yard sale sheep on the counter. There was a pig on the left that I replaced with a silk bouquet of flowers.

I really liked the pattern on the pieces that I bought......kind of reminds me of the Mackenzie Childs line of accessories.

I think that sun flowers just sing summer.....

I found three soup//cereal bowls and a pretty ceramic plate. The selection was limited, but I found enough pieces to add color to the kitchen.

Before..........................................after

This wooden rooster tray was $60, but only $12 on sale.

I only found one sheep saucer, We are going to Lubbock later this week and I will check their HL to see if they have any additional pieces in the 80% off isle.

Sheep are usually considered spring decor, but I think the sunflowers make them summer decor....don't you?

How pretty! I really like the pink you have in there and the sheep are so sweet. Who says they are for spring? I keep my birds out all year and I think some bloggers think they are springy. I say if it makes you happy then it's perfect. :)

I love your kitchen, Penny. I hope you are able to find more of the sheep dishes. I think sheep can be used any time of year. I have one from my creche set sitting on my green hutch year 'round. They are my favorite farm animal.Have a great weekend.

I love all the sheep. They are terrific. Such a fun happy scene. Love your kitchen, Penny! Pinned! Thank you so much for linking up at SHARE IT, at FineCraftGuild.com last week. A new party will open tomorrow and I sure hope to seeing you there again!

Kitchen accessories make life convenient and leave their mark on the taste and quality of the cooked and served food. A kitchen is like a work place that requires right tools in the form of utility appliances and cooking and serving items. Besides, decoration accessories are needed to add to the kitchen's value as an important part of the house.
